It is a matter of doing the right adjustments!!! Adults have higher resting metabolic rates (RMR) when compared to children, this is solely based on their greater body-weight. If you adjust RMR per Kg body-weight children
will have higher resting metabolic rates. Now it gets tricky, children also have a greater surface area to mass ratio. If we adjust now for surface area the RMR in children and adults become similar. The same principle accounts for the different RMRs in mice and elephants (Kleibers law)!
What else can I help you with?
Why might the measurement of the resting metabolic rate in a person be somewhat higher than her basal metabolic rate?
Answer: She ate right before the measurement was done Chapter 8 Nutrition assesment ~jmata~
Is it good to have high resting metabolism rate?
The higher your resting metabolic rate is, the more calories your body burns while at rest. So, while you sit or sleep you could be burning calories as if you were exercising.
Do children have the same blood pressures as adults?
Children tend to have less BP but higher HR than adult
Why newborn heart-rate is higher than adults?
The size of the body. It takes longer for the blood to travel through the body and back to the heart where it needs to be pumped again in adults. Newborn's blood doesn't have to travel as far, and reaches the heart quicker.
Why girls get higher heart beat than boys?
Because of high metabolic rate.
When is resting metabolic rate higher than resting metabolic rate?
wait that would be the same question just asked twice. the answer would be never because it is resting
Does metabolism stay constant though life?
No. Children have a higher metabolic rate than adults. Typically metabolism declines as you age.
IS children metabolism is known to be higher than adults A CORRECT SENTENCE?
No. You need to make the word "children" into possessive:"Children's metabolism is known to be higher than adults'.""Children's metabolism is known to be higher than adults' metabolism.""Children's metabolism is known to be higher than that of adults."
What causes increased respiratry rate in children?
Children are growing at faster rate. They need more oxygen for the increased metabolic activities. So the heart rate as well as the respiratory rate of children is higher as compared to adults.
Do women or men have higher Resting metabolic rate?
Males have a higher percentage of lean body mass.
How does intense exercise affect the body's resting metabolic rate?
Intense exercise can temporarily increase the body's resting metabolic rate, leading to a higher calorie burn even when at rest. This effect, known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC), can help with weight management and overall metabolic health.
Will my resting metabolic rate increase or decrease with weight loss?
You resting metabolism rate will decrease as you weight decreases. That is because a higher body mass will take more energy to function, thus resulting in a higher metabolism rate.
Why do children typically have higher body temperatures than adults?
Children typically have higher body temperatures than adults due to their higher metabolic rates, which generate more heat. Additionally, their bodies are still developing, and the thermoregulation system is not yet fully mature, making it less efficient at regulating temperature. Moreover, children tend to have a larger surface area relative to their body mass, which can lead to quicker heat loss and necessitate a higher internal temperature to maintain homeostasis.
Why might the measurement of the resting metabolic rate in a person be somewhat higher than her basal metabolic rate?
Answer: She ate right before the measurement was done Chapter 8 Nutrition assesment ~jmata~
What is the metabolic rate of an adult compared to a 2 year old?
The metabolic rate of a 2-year-old is generally higher than that of an adult on a per-kilogram basis. This is because young children require more energy relative to their body size to support rapid growth and development. In contrast, adults have a lower metabolic rate as their growth has stabilized, and their energy needs are primarily focused on maintenance and daily activities. Overall, the metabolic rate decreases with age, with children exhibiting higher rates in their early years.
Is it good to have high resting metabolism rate?
The higher your resting metabolic rate is, the more calories your body burns while at rest. So, while you sit or sleep you could be burning calories as if you were exercising.
What is the normal heart resting rate for adults according to the American heart association?
Expert consensus reveals that 98% of cardiologists believe that the "60 to 100" range is too high, with a vast majority of them agreeing that 50 to 90 beats per minute is more appropriate.[
